Rhapsody In Blue by George Gershwin

George Gershwin is an interesting character. On the one hand, his classical compositions did a lot to legitimize jazz music (that means make stuffy white people like it), but on the other hand he wrote Porgy And Bess which was chock full o' racism. Well, regardless of the 80 year old social implications of his work, we can all agree that Rhapsody in Blue is a pretty awesome piece. It was some plane company's theme song for a while, but I am too lazy to look it up. Anyways, that doesn't matter, just listen to it and get a little culture in you that isn't called Bud Light.
